Summary/Abstract |
THE IMPORTANCE of the "Vienna international platform" in dealing with topical issues facing mankind in the 21st century has been growing in recent years. It provides conditions for the formulation of a positive, unifying agenda for international relations. One special feature of the Vienna-based universal-format international organizations is that their potential for confrontation is insignificant while the opportunities for constructive cooperation in tackling topical issues, common to all states, are quite substantial.
In the energy sphere, this involves the peaceful use of atomic energy (IAEA), the promotion of energy saving and energy efficiency by developing and disseminating new technologies (UNIDO); in the security sphere, nonproliferation of nuclear weapons and "sensitive" technologies, fighting international organized crime and drug trafficking (the IAEA, the NPT Preparatory Committee, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, the Wassenaar Arrangement, etc.); in the sphere of research, analysis and forecast of international development trends, the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA), and etc.
There is an increasing need for this creative potential today when there is a growing understanding in the world and at the United Nations in particular that it will be impossible to solve global problems through unipolar approaches, sheer pragmatism and narrow state preferences.

Summary/Abstract |
THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION represents one of my first travel destinations since my recent appointment as Director General of UNIDO, and this is a strong reflection of my appreciation of, and confidence in our existing and future joint cooperation activities.
Today, when many countries of the world face similar challenges in balancing economic growth, environmental sustainability and social and economic inclusion, UNIDO's mandate is relevant more than ever.
